Contests
Any more info on the next contest coming up? Dates/rules etc etc?
Hi firejunkie,
I've sent an email about this to ed@dominatorfireworks.com and here is what he told me :
- You must use the provided HBS file (I've uploaded it to my website for your convenience : PGI2010DominatorContestVer2(2).hbs)
- Show duration under 10 minutes
- Product must not be altered in any way
- Break apart cake is not allowed
- "3 point fan" products is one item of a fan of three; keep left, center and right shots as not to waste product
- Entries must be submitted before June 27th, midnight, at ed@dominatorfireworks.com
I've also heard 1000 cues max in a previous e-mail, but this doesn't figure in the official rules so I wonder if it's really a limit.
Some tips are also available in the Tips for planning a fireworks pyromusical on Dominator's website.
STL
The MAXIMUM cue count for this show is 1044. That is the absolute number of addressable cues that are available per the equipment that has already been defined in the .hbs file. REMEMBER, you can have more than one ematch per que... Those limits are also already set in the .hbs file, in each of the positions, for each of the different types of modules that are being used. The limits were set VERY concervatively and from a "Parallel" point of reference. You could connect many more in "series" to these cues...
If you have any doubt about what you are attempting to do, please post here and I or Mike Korbylo(ATF) with verify.
Cheers and happy scripting!
Dominator wants to congratulate STL for his show being selected above all others, based on many variables. We have decided to use on of the 4 songs he scripted and a team of choreographers built onto that base to create what we believe will be a truly world class display.
We hope some of you will be at the PGI convention next month to see the creation come to life!
